ABSTRACT
Cogan-Reese syndrome is a disease characterized by glaucoma in an eye with peripheral anterior synechia, multiple pigmented iris nodules, and ectopic Descemet's membranes. Cogan-Reese syndrome is a variant of iridocorneal endothelial syndrome and shares common properties whcih are corneal endothelial degeneration, iris atrophy and secondary glaucoma, with progressive iris atrophy and Chandler's syndrome. We have experienced a 43-year-old female patient complaining of visual dimness in the left eye. On examination, we found characteristics of Cogan-Reese syndrome which were corneal endothelial pleomorphism and cell loss, corneal edema, iris atrophy and multiple pigmented nodules on the surface of the iris, peripheral anterior synechia, and increased intraocular pressure in the left eye. We report a case of Cogan-Reese syndrome which has not been reported in Korea.
